Lone Wolf

by Dark Priestess66

what if Sam wasn't the first wolf to phase, what if the first was a female, who didn't know about the legends or even knew about what her heritage was. will she help Sam be able to control his raging anger at being a wolf and what happens if she doesn't want to be in the Pack but has no choice. since the Pack means family.

17. Chapter 17

Mom moved to Forks, she started working in the local diner, she loved Forks. Which I found super strange but I guess I had gotten used to being without the sun too.

Mom visited often, she made my tiny house a home. She filled up so many hours of patrol coming home exhausted and starving. She even went out of her way to spend time with Emily when Sam wasn't with her.

I was sitting on the railing at Emily's, mom looked at me, like i had an answer to something that was troubling her.

"What's up?" I ask

"I can't help but notice that Quil seems to spend most of his time with that little girl." Mom answers.

Claire, somehow i knew Mom would notice things like that.

"What about them?" I ask

"Is Quil her brother?" Mom asks

"Not really...look mom, it's a wolf thing." I answer

"Doesn't really answer the question," Mom states looking at me.

"Notice the way Sam stares at Emily, like she's the sun or the way Jared is with Kim?" I ask feeling my own doubts and fears bubbling up. Mom nods, "Well it's because they imprinted on them."

"Come again?" Mom asks,

I look at her, "Imprinting means that Sam, Jared and Quil found their soul-mates"

Mom then began ranting about how wrong that was. Claire was only a child.

"Mom!" I exclaim, when she paused to catch her breathe. "It's not what you think."

She looked at me like she didn't believe me.

"Quil is in the overworked nanny stage and the really good part is...he doesn't care." I explain, "Let me take it this way, when one of us wolves find that certain someone, It's not like love at first sight, really. It's more like... gravity moves... suddenly. It's not the earth holding you here anymore, the person does... You become whatever he or she needs you to be, whether that's a protector, or a lover, or a friend."

Mom's eyes shined as i explained what imprinting was.

"Forget it, if you're thinking about getting grandkids someday." I state, i felt tears sting my eyes.

"But i want grandkids to spoil!" Mom whined,

"Mom, remember that Talk we had when i was younger?" I ask,

"Which one?" mom asks, "We have a few of them,"

"Okay, let me put it this way...what haven't you found in my bathroom?" I question

"Oh." Mom states, catching on.

I stood up and went to the forest. "Time for me to head out."
